He will receive credit for the 794 days he has served in jail.Tolison testified against his brother, Justin Darnell Reynolds, 23, who received a 30-year sentence after a jury found Reynolds guilty last December of shooting and robbing an

Enoree man on Easter Sunday in 2012. The victim was shot in the neck and left for dead after he was robbed. The father of three is now a quadriplegic.
